Charles...

I realize that you are not from GA...but I am, and I happen to know both of these fine men on stage...

I hate to break it to ya...but the whole “Contract with America” thing....was not Newt’s.....Newt may lead well...but us in GA know that his best talent is finding a parade and jumping in front of it....

Now, I am not trying to bash Newt...just letting you know that Newt may not be all you think he is...

BUT BOTH of these men are better than any other candidate from either party....IMHO

Has anyone’s mind been changed on either candidate?

No. Like them both. We're looking at the reason Newt's son came out today correcting the many year lie about him leaving wife 1 on her deathbed.

Your posts are showing just how out of touch you are to what’s being stated on this thread and on C-span... and who is saying it...Cain is not my candidate of choice...sheesh...your reasons for being here are not honorable to say the least

The score, IMO, is that these two would be GREAT on the campaign trail together!

After 15 to 20 minutes I noticed Newt has the thought-out fix for everything, and it's all easy, and all obvious. That always sets off my alarm bells.

The subject of fixing SS came up and again Newt went into his :”It's easy....” analogies. He says how SS was insolvent under Carter but it became solvent under Reagan merely by creating new jobs and increasing the economic growth rate.
Well that does sound like it was REALLY easy except.....Newt must have been a-sleep during a major change to SS under Reagan. Hint : It created the so called 'trust fund'.

Perry is a coward. He prefers the shot in the back.

If Perry prefers getting shot in the back, he must be a happy person this election cycle:

Cain: "[There] isn't a more vile, negative word than the N-word, and for [Perry] to leave it there as long as he did, before I hear that they finally painted over it, is just plain insensitive to a lot of Black people in this country."

Cain: "Since Governor Perry has been going there for years to hunt, I think that it shows a lack of sensitivity for a long time of not taking that word off of that rock and renaming the place. It's just basically a case of insensitivity."

Cain (later) : "All I said was the mere fact that that word was there was ‘insensitive,'"

Cain (later) : ""I really don't care about that word,"

I am liking Gingrich again. He is intelligent, he still has to behave in a way to regain my trust tho.
